The Moodboard

Concept- Climbs from a car- Enters the woods, ignores the people he passes- Wanders through the trees, intercut with memories

of a happier past - Encounters friends hanged, cuts them down. They

get up and follow him- His memory leads him to a clearing- Is surrounded by the dead people he has chopped

down who dance around him- They part, revealing his dead self in the tree- He approaches his dead self, whose eyes open- He cuts himself down.
